The Slimming Nectar is a powerful formula of enzymes supercharged with Chestnut Astringent Skin extract and Chia Seed provides safest nature's power for weight loss for life.Some more information on main ingredients-Chestnut Astringent Skin extract- Supports reduction of carbohydrates absorption into the body. Chia Seeds- Great source of Omega3 fats and fibre. Helps to boost energy, stabilize sugar level and aids in digestion. Also contains amino acids, which helps to regulate appetite.Fibersol-2- Natural dietary fiber made from corn.My Take on Mygen Life Slimming NectarThe drink unlike other slimming drinks has a sweet and slightly tangy flavour, which is always welcome. Another things that I liked about the drink is that you can consume it any time of the day and so you need not bother about timings and having it before or after a meal as with most such drinks. Only one bottle a day is also a fair dosage. You can actually taste Chia Seeds as soon as you sip, if you shake the drink well.After taking a dose, I could actually feel less hungry than usual, which looks like a good sign and would love to try this for atleast 28 days as mentioned on the product. It is also a good source of fibre, which also helps to increase the satiety level and hence curb the appetite.Mygen Life definitely seems like a promising product and is on my shopping list as well.If you would like to buy, you may do so at Guardian stores or Hannah Holding Website (http://www.hannah.com.sg/brands?page=shop.product_details&flypage=flypage.tpl&product_id=87&category_id=3) at S$49.90 for a pack of 6 bottles.

Anytime in our life, our hopes only keep us going, helping us to face any situation that we come across. Whenever we are entering a new phase in our life, our hope to achieve the best there becomes our guiding factor. When everyone tells us to give up; our hope only tells us to try one more time...
Yet another time has come for all of us to bid farewell to a beautiful and wonderful year, although it came with some natural calamities in various parts of the world and we did loose some of the great people from various walks of life but that does not mean that we stop hoping for the best in the year which is yet to come.
Let's hope that 2014 will be a great year for all of us, we get to see more joy than we have seen already; let's hope that we are able to achieve all that we have dreamt of and let's hope to make this world a better place to live. Sorrow will always be a part of our lives like joys; but let's hope that we are able to face our sorrows as graciously as we accept our joys.
Let's hope to get the best and give our best to whatever we do!!

Signing off with a hope to see you all in 2014... Till then keep in touch and never give up hope!!

Near about three weeks, before we enter 2014, and few days ago, came the much awaited announcement from Pantone- the Color of the Year 2014. Pantone is the world-renowned authority on color and provider of color systems and leading technology for the selection and accurate communication of color across a variety of industries. The PANTONE® name is known worldwide as the standard language for color communication from designer to manufacturer to retailer to customer. Every year, Pantone announces the Color of the year, which then becomes the sought after color in that year and most of the color trends- fashion, beauty, make up, interiors revolve around that color both in Spring and Fall.Color of the Year 2013 was Emerald. We still have 3 weeks left in 2013, if you would like to know more about Emerald, read the posts here and here. To have a look at the previous years' Color of the Year-

Now, coming on to 2014, The color of the Year is (drum rolls) Radiant Orchid.... Expressive, exotic Radiant Orchid blooms with confidence and warmth.“While the 2013 color of the year, PANTONE 17-5641 Emerald, served as a symbol of growth, renewal and prosperity, Radiant Orchid reaches across the color wheel to intrigue the eye and spark the imagination,” said Leatrice Eiseman, executive director of the Pantone Color Institute®. “An invitation to innovation, Radiant Orchid encourages expanded creativity and originality, which is increasingly valued in today’s society.”“An enchanting harmony of fuchsia, purple and pink undertones, Radiant Orchid inspires confidence and emanates great joy, love and health. It is a captivating purple, one that draws you in with its beguiling charm.”

Source: http://www.pantone.comMy Views on the Color of the Year 2014An interesting and complex color, Radiant Orchid is also one of my favorites. For me this exotic color signifies luxury and confidence. It is a complex color to work around for combinations, but will be absolutely gorgeous if used well. I have always been fond of colors from this family. Apart from luxury, this for me is a color for romance, I would say matured romance, with a bit of mystery, a bit of luxury and ofcourse not too sweet like pinks and not too sexy like reds. Similar color also features in my company's Logo along with Silver Gray. I selected this combination for the luxury and elegance associated with it.

Trying out the Sally Hansen Nail colors, I tried on the Hard as Nails Xtreme Wear Nail Color, which promises Xtreme Strength and Shine. I picked up Shade 485 Golden I, which I combined with Salon Effects Real Nail Polish Strips (204 Simply D-Vine) for the ring finger nail.

The Xtreme Wear nail colour is a thick and intense formula, which is available in lot of fun colors. The only problem while applying is that, you have to completely wipe off the extra paint from the brush as the polish from the handle tends to come down and unknowingly you may have a big blob of color on your nail and this could be really irritating and difficult to clean off if you have small nails.Available at: Watsons, GuardianPrice: S$ 13.90-14.90

Have you tried Xtreme Wear Nail color? Which is your favorite shade?? Do leave a comment and share.

November Glamabox came products meant for achieving healthy and flawless skin.

Talking about the products, the box came with seven products from six brands.1. Revlon Age Defying with DNA Advantage Cream Makeup, 30ml (Retail Price- S$25 for 30ml)- This Cream makeup from Revlon contains anti-ageing properties to fight the visible signs of ageing to get flawless and younger looking skin, which is also refreshed and hydrated. This also has SPF 20, so good for normal sun protection as well. The product is full size sample and what I loved at the first look was packaging. It looks as if the product is packaged in spiral pattern.

I received shade 25 Medium Beige, which matches my skin tone quite well. It also has some metallic particles which add shine to the skin, making it look even younger.2. Dr.Ci:Labo Aqua-Collagen-Gel Enrich-Lift-Ex, 10g (Retail Price: S$71 for 50g)- This gel like product has added seaweed essence. It also contains Isoflavones, which has similar structure to skin cells and it activates cell structure deep within the skin.3. Dr.Ci:Labo Aqua-Collagen-Gel Super Moisture EX, 10g (Retail Price: S$63 for 50g)- This gel leaves the skin hydrated and prevents wrinkles and freckles.4. L&P Pumpkin Ade Mask, 1 pc (Retail Price: S$2 for 1 pc)- This mask is rich in Vitamin A, Minerals, Iron and lutein from pumpkin. It delays ageing and reduce wrinkles and makes skin elastic.5. LA ROCHE-POSAY Toleriane Ultra Biocellulose Mask, 1 pc (Retail Price: S$57 for 4 pcs)- This mask helps to reduce skin sensitivity.6. Footpure Foot Deodorant Powder, 10g (Retail Price: S$15 for 45ml)- The deodorant is composed of natural corn starch and can absorb foot sweat and moisture keeping the foot comfortable. It also keeps away the foot odour.7. PDA Marry Me Perfume, 3ml (Retail Price: S$26 for 30ml)- This citrusy floral fragrance is romantic and sensual, and fragrance for dating and love. An interesting fragrance but a bit too sweet for my senses.

So, that was all about my Glamabox November 2013. Some products look impressive and promising specially the Revlon Make up and Foot Deodorant. Would love try them out and see the effect.
